Another day, another threat – sorry, prediction – of impending violence towards women from someone on The Spearhead. This time from a fellow called James, in his twenties:
The OLDER MEN simply do not understand what it is like to be a young man today.
I will say one thing though- a very big percent of young men of my generation do not believe in this feminism or white knight bullshit, and they have very little tolerance towards it.
Older men will allow themselves to get ass raped in divorce courts, but the younger men of my generation have no such tolerance.
So if the younger women think they are going to treat the younger men with the same level of hatred that the older women do to the older men, they have a big surprise waiting for them.
1. Either the men will just entirely boycott the younger women
or
2. They will actively fight for their rights, even with force, if it requires it
What I mean by that is, the younger generation of men are much more violent than the older generation. So in plain English, if women think they are going to treat the younger generation of men like shit, then we are going to see a huge increase in violence against women.
In short, the men of my generation are not as willing to tolerate the abuse from man hating women as the older men are. Young women would be very wise to take note of this.
Unfair quote-mining on my part? Not exactly. James got 72 upvotes for this bit of wisdom on The Spearhead, and only 8 downvotes.
Meanwhile, our old friend at the Pro-Male/Anti-Feminist Technology blog highlighted James’ comment in a post of his own, quoting the whole thing, and adding his own spin:
The younger you go on average you will find less tolerance for anything pro-female. This is not surprising. Even looking at my own life, I have been dealing with feminism since I was in elementary school especially if we define feminism correctly as feminine-ism. I remember (female) teachers being pro-female and anti-male going back to first grade. As bad as I had it, it is worse for men younger than me. They’re not going to listen to lies about how women are oppressed because all they have seen with their own eyes are the opposite. …
By 2020 the balance between men who are currently old vs. men who are currently young will have shifted. There will be less old men who remember life pre-feminism. There will be more young men who have spent their entire lives under the feminist jack boot. There will be more men who are completely fed up with women. Around 2020 there will be a lot more men willing to take radical direct action against feminism.
“Radical direct action against feminism?” What does this mean? Generalized violence against women, as James seems to suggest? Firebombing police stations and courthouses, as MRA “martyr” Tom Ball urged in his manifesto? Like most of those in the Men’s Rights movement who like to talk ominously about what they hope will be a massive anti-feminist backlash, the PMAFT blogger is vague about what exactly this might entail. But it’s not hard to connect the dots here.
Protip: MRAs, if you don’t want people to see the Men’s Rights movement as a hate movement — you need to stop posting, stop upvoting, stop even tolerating this kind of hateful shit.
AntZ
MOAR BULLSHIT.
lol.
@Sharculese
I see the origins of your confusion.
The female in question is a PhD candidate. I wanted her to work in drug design. She ignored my advice, and now works at LSU (environmental science). She is a hypothesis driven thinker, and is wasting her talent in a field that remains mired in an outdated observational/discovery model for science. Very sad.
Can’t imagine why.
TRANSLATED ANTZ: I REFER TO WOMEN AS FEMALES. YOU’RE ALL THE BIGOTS.
And she also refused your advice to move to the other side of the Mississippi.
And her tables were mis-configured.
I also like this:
a field that remains mired in an outdated observational/discovery model for science
Yeah, those stupid environmental scientists, all obsessed with “looking at stuff” and “learning about it.”
(Are people keeping their eyes peeled for stuff to put in the Funny-Off?)
How dare a woman do what she wanted, rather than what AntZ so wisely chose for her. I mean, he knows what kind of thinker she is! I’m sure she doesn’t know that!
When I was little I was diagnosed with ADHD by a quack advisor. Thankfully my mother stepped in and prevented me from being “treated” while my father still says I can’t pay attention in condescending tones. A girl is diagnosed with ADHD. It’s crazy, I know.
I also did a lot of “violent” play and drew “violent” drawings. I drew tanks and dinosaurs and Star Fox blowing things up as early as I can remember. I played Star Fox 64 and Super Mario games and watched Star Wars on a regular basis. And I spent endless moments enacting outer space dogfights.
I was only chastised for any of this in 4th grade and that was from a peculiar teacher who insisted that everyone have a learning disability.
Other than that, I was allowed to be as crazy as I wanted.
If only this pesky female student was a FOREiGN BRIDE or invented VR SEX, then the world would be a better place.
I once made the corner of my math book into a flipbook with stickmen fighting each other and there was a lot of stick dismemberment and I didn’t get in trouble for that.
Antz, please explain to me how feminists influenced a million years of evolution to create ADD?
I second your opinion about group seating, I friggin hated that in school when I was a girl. But it had nothing to do with me being a girl, it was because I’m an extreme introvert.
I went to an all-girls high school, and now I am in a Masters program where about 75% of the students are women. I just realized that for my whole education, the desks have been configured to advantage men!
Aren’t most classes teacher centered? I mean from my experience there was always a few group things in classes but most of it was just the teacher teaching a class.(obviously my experience is not universal but I’ve never heard it where a class was peer teaching only.) Plus how does ritalin against “male learning”? You said that awhile back but never explained it. And how do you know that all teachers know about your weird theory but choose to ignore it? I mean obviously kids learn differently and school does not cater very well to those kids who don’t fit into the learning standard (gender is irrelevant here) but I don’t think this means is some huge conspiracy to hold men back. You need to prove that feminists specifically know this weird theory of yours and enforce it and how they enforce it. You can’t just say something and them bam its true.
*then
@katz I love flipbooks. My favorite form of art. In junior high, I made a stop-motion/claymation short called “The Worm Ranger.” Like the Lone Ranger, except he was a worm. There was no violence because, although he had a holster with pistols, he had no arms with which to draw.
But then I hated school anyways, especially when they tried to fail me, not because of grades but because I was too aggressive for a girl. With my brother they tried to fail him because he was too passive. Considering what they had to go through with me, I’d have thougtt my brothers personality would be a godsend…
Cloudiah, I think my junior high self would have gotten along with your junior high self.
Before I went mostly online, I taught in a variety of classroom configurations (first year to graduate school university, students ranging in age from 16 to 82).
I liked grouping students for group work SOME of the class; I also did short lectures.
BUt no matter what the configuration, basic thing is: teacher is center/authority (there was this fad for de-centering teachers blah blah blah, but here’s the deal: even when group work, I am the one setting the rules, and I am the one grading the work). I am the authority.
I like assigning a lot of peer response and peer-learning group work (students hate it) because, among other things, like THEORY, employers often complain that college students come out unprepared to work in groups! Because ANTZ surprising but true, work doesn’t work like school!
DOH!
Now I each mostly online, so I’m not sure what classroom configuration that is. But they’re working their little tails off, lemme tell you.
I’m another woman who took Ritalin for a few years as a child. As it turned out, I didn’t have ADD, so Ritalin did me no good, but it was hardly a horrifying “punishment.” The worst thing it ever did to me was give me mild insomnia.
Incidentally, I wasn’t prescribed it for learning in a “male style” (whatever that means), or, in fact, for anything school-related. I was by any measure pretty much the ideal elementary school student. I was given Ritalin because in stressful situations I tended to freak out, burst into tears, and run off and hide, which was diagnosed as “impulsivity” rather than the eventual more accurate assessment of “massive anxiety and depression as filtered through a five-year-old’s brain.” Unless “keep little girls from running off and hiding under bushes while having panic attacks” is part of the Evil Feminist Agenda, I’m pretty sure my Ritalin prescription had fuck-all to do with feminism.
“Antz, please explain to me how feminists influenced a million years of evolution to create ADD? ”
Well, obviously the gynofascists have time machines. True story: Queen Elizabeth I would have been a man if not for them.
No no! Its because feminists fucked with a million years of evolution and caused the y chromosome to shed genes. Since boys only have one copy of most genes, if they function in a non typical manner or not at all they end up with a disorder. Then, because feminazis are so cunning, we invented a drug called Ritalin to subdue all those little boys! Its genius I tell you!! (Even more so since men like Antz tend to believe we lack intelligence)
NO NO NO WHAT ARE YOU SAYING
EDWARD IS A BOYS NAME
EDWARD ALSO RUNS ABOUT IN A MALE-TYPICAL FASHION
EDWARD ALSO KNOWS COMPUTERS
WHY DO YOU SAY EDWARD IS A GIRL EDWARD IS CLEARLY A BOY IF EDWARD IS A GIRL DOING BOY THINGS IT WOULD MEAN THAT GENDER IS NOT BINARY BUT A SPECTRUM AND THAT WOULD BE CRAZY TALK
dammit i just got convicted of exceeding the capital limit in a single post.
they’re going to send me to grammar school.
Where they will, no doubt, teach you in a female-centric way.
Falconer, yeah and you’ll be sitting at circular desks!! Doing group work!
